Math Runner

About This Game

Math Runner combines arcade action with mental arithmetic. Your character runs automatically through a scrolling landscape, and math problems appear as obstacles ahead. Each problem shows an equation like "7 + 4 = ?" with three possible answers floating in lanes. Jump over the wrong answers and steer into the correct one.

This was the game that surprised us most during testing. We built it thinking it would appeal to kids, but adults got competitive with it too — turns out solving "13 x 7" while dodging obstacles at high speed is genuinely challenging regardless of age.

Controls

On mobile, swipe up/down to change lanes and tap to jump. Steering into the right answer is safer than jumping — you can't miss the lane.

Strategy Tips

Scan before you act. The correct answer is always one of the visible options. Before moving, quickly scan all three answers — the right one is usually obvious. Rushing into the wrong lane costs a life.

Jump over obviously wrong answers. If you see "9 x 6 = 15" as an option, that's clearly wrong (it's 54). Jump over it and focus on the two remaining choices.
